List of largest hydroelectric power stations. Three Gorges Dam (left), Gezhouba Dam (right) This article provides a list of the largest hydroelectric power stations by generating capacity. Only plants with capacity larger than 3,000 MW are listed. The Three Gorges Dam in Hubei, China, has the world's largest instantaneous generating capacity ...
The following are lists of hydroelectric power stations based on the four methods of hydroelectric generation: List of conventional hydroelectric power stations, hydroelectric generation through conventional dams. List of pumped-storage hydroelectric power stations, hydroelectric generation through pumped-storage. List of run-of-the-river ...
The following page lists all pumped-storage hydroelectric power stations that are larger than 1,000 MW in installed generating capacity, which are currently operational or under construction. Those power stations that are smaller than 1,000 MW , and those that are decommissioned or only at a planning/proposal stage may be found in regional ...
Those power stations that are smaller than 1,000 MW, or those that are only at a planning/proposal stage may be found in regional lists, listed at the end of the page. The largest hydroelectric power station is the Three Gorges Dam in China, rated at 22,500 MW in total installed capacity.
Non-renewable power stations are those that run on coal, fuel oils, nuclear fuel, natural gas, oil shale and peat, while renewable power stations run on fuel sources such as biomass, geothermal heat, hydro, solar energy, solar heat, tides and the wind. Only the most significant fuel source is listed for power stations that run on multiple sources.
This list includes most power stations that are larger than 100 MW in maximum net capacity, which are currently operational or under construction. Those power stations that are smaller than 100 MW, and those that are only at a planning/proposal stage, may be found in regional lists, are listed at the end of the page.
